When at home I'd like my nexus 7 to be able to access & play music files which are stored on our NAS.

Original plan was to mount relevant folder on NAS as smb share & then use any music player of choice.

I'm using ubuntu 12.04 with gnome-shell and "mediaplayer-extension" from https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/55/. When i hit the close button on a music player, like rhythmbox 2.9x, it hides somewhere, but it keeps playing music in the background. But if i try to do the same on another distro, when I hit the close button, rhythmbox quits instantly.

We're big fans of Amarok music player at OStatic. It's a powerful open source application that lets you play music you have and find music you don't, thanks to it's integration with notable music services like Last.fm, Magnatune, and Librivox.

GMPC (Gnome Music Player Client) is a GTK2 frontend for Music Player Daemon. It is released under the GNU General Public License and is free software. It is designed to be lightweight and easy to use, while providing full access to all of MPD's features. Users are presented with several different methods to browse through their music. It can be extended by plugins, of which many are available.

I have set Rhythmbox as my default music player through System Settings > Details, but when I browse and play music from the Unity dash, Banshee opens up and plays the music. How can I have Rhythmbox take care of this job?

The Clementine Music Player is an up and coming application that could replace your default music app. It is a close cousin to Amarok with just enough of its own personality to make it stand apart from the crowd. On any computing platform today, users have ample choices of music players. Most of these music player apps have a common look and feel. Some simply play your playlists.

I like the idea of Google Play Music, especially the part that lets it upload any new music I add to my computer library. I know I can make the music available on my N7 for offline play. I don't like the Google Play Music player. I tried to adjust the volume, but I guess the only way to do that is to use the volume control on the tablet itself.

Okay so I just bought my Samsung Galaxy S3 in January along with a SanDisk Ultra 64 GB MicroSDXC Class 10. I have a lot of music files (around 9 GB) so I put them in the external SD drive. I think I first tried putting my music in it using my Mac and I had some trouble at first putting it in with DoubleTwist with my PC.
